Funny stuff. Yeah, I never did hear from Boiler.

 

The most honest way to look at it is to acknowledge that Biden did nothing to cause high inflation and made modestly successful attempts to curb it. It would have subsided on its own as the worldwide supply chain disruptions resolved and consumption habits returned to normal.

 

Unfortunately, any rational consideration of the topic dissolved amid the MAGA hoo-hah about "Bidenflation." You gotta hand it to them, though. That Big Lie worked. They've learned from Joseph Goebbels.

  More lies.The high inflation occured during brain dead Biden's tenure because of the policies that he and the DemocRATs implemented.

Nope. No economist says that or endorses that view. That MAGA says that means nothing.
